Tickets for apprentices and trainees

There are reduced-price monthly season tickets as well as the super-saver all-year season ticket for apprentices/trainees. And you get even greater value for money with the Bonus Ticket for apprentices/trainees, which can be subsidized by your employer.

The monthly season ticket and the all-year season ticket for apprentices/trainees are valid for a defined period and within the area you have chosen. The BonusTicket for apprentices/trainees is valid for travel on the entire network (fare rings A-H). These tickets do not include extra benefits such as the right to take other persons along with you at the weekend.

All season tickets and upgrades are valid till close of services on the last day of the period of validity printed on them. Close of services is 6 am on the following morning.

Monthly and all-year season tickets for apprentices and trainees

When you buy a ticket for an apprentice/trainee you will need to submit a filled out entitlement form. This must be validated by the company where you are doing your apprenticeship/traineeship (and then by the relevant Chamber of Crafts or Chamber of Commerce).

Apprentices/trainees will automatically be sent the form (entitlement form) by post when their apprenticeship/traineeship contract has been officially registered by the Hamburg Chamber of Commerce and Crafts, or they can otherwise get it at our service centres or via the our Infoline on 040/19 449.
